Fuel Prices Up, Salaries Cut: Energy Shock To Pakistan Amid Iran War

Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Monday announced a sweeping austerity and energy-saving plan, saying the steps were necessary as the country confronts a global fuel crisis triggered by the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel and Iran. Pakistan, like several other economies, is facing fuel supply disruptions following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global energy supplies. The disruption began after Iran retaliated against US bases in the Middle East following joint strikes by the United States and Israel, complicating oil shipments across the region. Amid tightening supplies, Pakistan increased petrol and diesel prices by 20 per cent and rolled out nationwide austerity measures aimed at cutting fuel consumption and government spending. Region "In A State Of War" In a televised address to the nation, Sharif said the wider region had been engulfed in conflict and stressed that Pakistan was working through diploma...

"What's Not Worth It? Wife Or Marriage": TVK Worker To Party Leader Vijay

A worker of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam or TVK has publicly criticised actor-turned-politician Vijay over the remarks he made while indirectly referring to the controversy surrounding his reported marital dispute. Ranjana Nachiyar, who joined TVK about a year ago after leaving the BJP, issued a strongly worded Women's Day message questioning the tone and implications of Vijay's comments and warning that leaders must be careful not to set the wrong example for young followers. Her remarks came a day after Vijay, speaking at a TVK Women's Day event, appeared to respond tacitly to the ongoing controversy over reports of a divorce plea filed by his wife. Addressing supporters, he said: "Over the recent developments I shall deal with it. Don't be hurt. It's not worth it. We shall look after only public issues."

Hungary Seizes Millions In Cash And Gold From Ukrainian Convoy, Seven Detained

A diplomatic dispute between Hungary and Ukraine has intensified after Hungarian authorities seized armoured bank vehicles carrying large quantities of cash and gold reportedly linked to a Ukrainian state bank. Officials in Hungary said the convoy was transporting $40 million and 35 million Euro in cash along with about 9 kilograms of gold when it was stopped by customs authorities. Seven Ukrainian citizens travelling with the vehicles were detained. Hungary's National Tax and Customs Administration said it had opened a money-laundering investigation into the shipment. Authorities also claimed that one of the detainees was a former general from Ukraine's intelligence services, raising further suspicions about the origins of the funds.

Abhishek Sent Brutal 'Headless Batting' Message After Flop Show vs England

Former India cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed concern regarding batter Abhishek Sharma 's recent form following India's T20 World Cup semi-final against England. Abhishek made just nine runs off seven balls before losing his wicket to Will Jacks in the second over. This latest performance extended a difficult run for the 25-year-old left-hander, who has managed scores of 0, 0, 0, 15, 55, 10, and 9 - a total of 89 runs at an average of 12.71. Speaking on his YouTube channel, "Ash Ki Baat," Ashwin said that while he doesn't want Abhishek to be dropped for the final, he wants the team management to instill sense into him on how to play according to the situation. "Abhishek Sharma has that factor. In the series against New Zealand, he was in top form. He has batted well against Mitchell Santner and Matt Henry in the past. So I wouldn't be too fussed about Abhishek. But I would like to have a conversation with him. I would tell him, 'Listen...

'No Deal With Iran Except Unconditional Surrender': Trump

US President Donald Trump on Friday demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender" as the only acceptable outcome to end hostilities, while promising to help rebuild the country's economy if Tehran complied and installed new leadership. "There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. The post came as Israel bombarded regime targets in Tehran and Hezbollah positions in Beirut, and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said US strikes against Iran were "about to surge dramatically." Trump said that following any capitulation by the Islamic Republic, the United States and its allies would work to bring Iran "back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before." This would be contingent on the installation of what he called "a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s)." He closed with a new slogan — "MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!)...
